Summary

 'One of the greatest crime writers of our times' DENISE MINA
'No one does atmospheric quite like Louise Penny' ELLY GRIFFITHS

There is more to solving a crime than following the clues.
Welcome to Chief Inspector Gamache's world of facts and feelings.

The air is unbearably tense as Armand Gamache returns to work since being demoted from its command to head of homicide. Amid blistering personal social media attacks, Gamache sets out on his first assignment. He has been tasked with finding a missing woman, but while he leads the search for Vivienne Godin, his home of Three Pines itself is threatened when the river breaks its banks, and an emergency is declared.

As the waters rise, a body is discovered - and the victim's distraught father contemplates revenge. Gamache is a father himself, and is haunted by a question . . . what would he do, if his child's killer might walk free?

Another fabulous book from LOUISE PENNY.
The story kept me hooked and thinking and plotting to the end. I am sad I will have to wait a while to re enter the world of three pines.
I enjoy all the characters so very much.
Best yet.

To read about Three Pines is like coming home...Penny manages to bring out new sides to the characters we think we know so well.

Brilliant!

This had me close to tears several times. Fighting against the elements, the criminals and determining who were friends and who were foes. The river and storms were so descriptive. I’ve just loved this series, mostly. And now I’m returned to the position of longing to know what happens next but dreading them being out of my life, so real do they appear. On to ( currently, January 2021)the last, but hoping there will be another.

So good

I can only wonder at the skill of writer, Louise Penny. A story full of twists and turns. Proving a plethora of emotions.
The characters are all brought to life by the narrator, Adam Simms.
First class!-
